Curl Crippled Just Before the Break

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

In another leftover hand from Level 15, Charles Harder opened for 6,000 and Alan Curl moved all in for roughly 55,000 from the hijack. Brandon Miller then called off for 47,700 from the small blind, and Harder got out of the way.

Miller: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
Curl: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

Miller was dominated, but not after the flop came down {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts} to give him top pair with a flush draw. The {2-Spades} turn was no help to Curl, and neither was the {8-Spades} river. Miller doubled on the hand while Curl was left with just 6,500. He managed to double that in the last hand before the break, but he is still incredibly short.
